"Taking up arms, firing on British Troops and conspiring with the enemy "
You can't condemn people to death for "in other words" - your rule book and the British law says to have to be specifically charged - have your charges read out and be allowed to enter a defence and produce witnesses - source British and military law (not to mention natural justice.
Any capital crime has to adhere to the rule of law - this kangaroo court breached its own laws - no defence, no witnesses, judged by those involved in the fighting.
I ask again, where anywhere has this act of revenge ever been referred to as a "Treason Trial" - surely it went town in the reacords as "treason"?
You and your "in other words" are making it up as you always do.
treason is a matter of law, not a matter of making things up to try to win arguments
The accuse is assused of "in other words" - how do you plead (whoops sorry, you have no right to reply to that"
You're a bit ofa joke really - who did you serve under during your fantasy tiume in the forces - Bilko??
